Welcome to the 33rd Annual Kingston Home Builders Association Home and Renovation Show
Building a new home or renovating your existing home? There’s no better place to be this weekend, than at the Kingston Home Builders Association 33rd Annual Home and Renovation Show. Held at the Cataraqui Centre, the show features exhibitors showcasing many products & services. While some booths have participated in the show for decades, others are new this year. Shoppers can speak directly to professionals involved in many segments of the home and renovation industry. “It’s amazing that a volunteer organization can run a high quality show like this for 33 years,” noted Greg Newman, President of the Kingston Home Builders Association. “We have an excellent Show Committee that’s always trying to improve the Show. It’s important that both our participants and our valued patrons have a great experience”, he added. The Show is a great convenience to patrons, as it offers one stop shopping for product knowledge & quotes. Returning this year, is the KHBA Home Show Passport. “We’re delighted to have partnered with Marlin Travel Service Guaranteed to send a lucky couple to Las Vegas” says Newman. The Show area has been divided into six areas representing the six Las Vegas resorts. Patrons simply have their Passport validated by one vendor in each of the six resort areas (Excalibur, Caesars Palace, Venetian, Bellagio, Planet Hollywood & Monte Carlo). Completed Passports are dropped off at the Marlin Travel Service Guaranteed booth. The draw takes place Sunday at 4pm.
Passports are available to adults free of charge (limited to one per adult patron), and are available at all participating vendors. Returning to the Show this year is the “Home-in-One Grand Give Away” putting challenge. “This was a hugely successful family event last year. The community support was fabulous, with $1,500 donated to Almost Home”, says Newman. With any freewill donation to Kids Help Phone (www.kidshelpphone.ca), each participant gets three chances to sink a golf ball using a putter fashioned out of a hammer. One ballot is earned for every successful putt. The winner of the draw takes home $1,000, courtesy of BMO Financial Group. CRA tax receipts are provided for any donation over $10. Unlike other trade or home renovation shows, this show has no admission charge - it’s free. The show runs during mall hours: 9:30 a.m. – 9 p.m. Friday, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. Saturday, and 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. Sunday. The Kingston Home Builders Association first met in the basement of a home in 1954 to discuss the possibility of beginning an association. In 2015, the association has become an important asset to the Kingston home building community with over 200 members. “We are an association that represents the interests of those in the home building industry, including developers” said Mason. “We work with the City of Kingston and Loyalist Township to ensure that [homebuilding] development is progressing in a positive way.” Members include new home builders, renovators, trades, suppliers, and professionals. “We host various events

City approves 2015 budget for flagship arena By Bill Hutchins
News – The private firm that manages Kingston’s flagship arena has lowered its revenue projections for 2015. SMG Canada is projecting net income of about $700,000 at the Rogers K-Rock Centre this year, compared to the $975,000 forecast that was unattainable in 2014. Officials say the revised $700,000 target is a better reflection of actual industry trends. “In looking at what we’ve averaged in the last couple of years we’ve decided to change our look forward to base (the budget) more on what our actuals have been instead of what we know our potential is,” explained Lynn Carlotto, SMG’s general manager for the Kingston sports and entertainment venue. The arena’s net profit to the city was $610,000 in 2014 - based on total projected event revenues of $1.3 million versus $1.9 million in projected expenses - which suggests that reaching the revised $700,000 income level could still be a challenge. “In order to achieve these results, the revenues generated through Can we all agree that Karen Schinners has the best job in Kingston, caring every day for the beautiful flowers in concerts and entertainment bookings must increase, advertising and the warmth of the City of Kingston greenhouse?

Frontenacs will need to continue their upward trend in attendance for the regular season and into the playoffs,” according to SMG’s 2015 budget submission to council. The city-owned but privately managed facility hosted 107 events last year including concerts, family shows, hockey games, sporting events, conferences, trade shows, meetings and other special events – a figure that was 15 per cent lower than budgeted. Overall attendance was 234,000 spectators, 9.6 per cent lower than budget. Despite not reaching the event and attendance projections, SMG officials appeared before city council Feb. 17 to trumpet the positive aspects of 2014, and what’s to come in 2015 when the entertainment venue hopes to attract 118 events. Carlotto spoke about the 18 popular concerts that appeared on stage last year such as The Band Perry, Goo Goo Dolls, Backstreet Boys, Sam Roberts Band, Hedley, plus Cirque du Soleil and world wrestling matches, the recent Skate Canada national championships, and the growing fan base to see the Kingston Frontenacs. “The purpose of our facility is to bring in the greatest variety,” CarContinued on page 4

Real estate agent gives back to Kingston’s military community hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca
News - Military tradition runs deep in the blood of local real estate agent John Price. While he decided against following in the footsteps of his father and two grandfathers by embarking on a career in the Canadian Forces – “I couldn’t go a college where there were no girls,” he jokes about his decision not to attend RMC – Price maintains very close ties with the local military community in Kingston. “After 27 years of real estate, I’ve been very successful. I’ve had the honour of working with a lot of military people and helping with their houses.” Price explains that it’s always been important to him and his wife and business partner, Heather, to give back to the community. “Every year we were dividing our money between a lot of good charities…and I said why don’t we focus on one charity and let’s make a big impact. The military was what I was most passionate about.” Over the last several years, Price
like to have a fund there so that we can provide resources and aid, be it social or psychological or whatever way that we can help.” He says that if the program works well, it could expand throughout the province and country. A long time family friend by the name Don Cherry is often by Price’s side at events supporting the military. “My whole life I grew up calling Don my uncle,” he explains. “He’s not my biological uncle, but he happens to be my father’s best friend.” Price coordinates a steady pipeline of hockey sticks, posters and more between KMFRC and his father’s house. “We drop them off at my dad’s and when Don arrives every couple of months he signs things. No one can argue about the passion he has towards the military. He’s one of the number one faces for thanking the military.” Price is currently in the process of helping to create a Don Cherry Legacy Fund, which will be supported largely by a major annual concert.
John Price (second from the left) poses for a photo with local soldiers beside the Poppy Monument at the 2014 Remembrance Day Kingston Frontenacs Game. The monument honours soldiers who died in Afghanistan, and is made from a piece of an Abram’s tank in which a number of soldiers perished. At the time, Price was the only civilian who had the honour of placing a poppy on the monument. “The proceeds of the profits made from that will probably be going to the KMFRC and some of it will go to the International Hockey Hall of Fame, because Don Cherry
is close to that as well.” For all the work they do for the local military community, it comes Continued on page 6

He also donates 14 tickets for each Kingston Frontenacs game to military families, and organizes the two annual Kingston Frontenacs military appreciation games (one early in the year and one near Remembrance Day), at which the local team dons cadpat jerseys in honour of Kingston’s military community; those with military ID are also offered a discount on tickets to the games. Price’s contributions are so significant that he was named honorary director of fundraising at KMFRC. In this role, he’s helping to create a new fund that will assist service members and their families with post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD); this will be the first program of its kind in Ontario. “When many of our great soldiers come back from theatre, some of them have a hard time [adjusting] and it affects not only that military personnel but also the families,” Price says, explaining that there has been a high number of military suicides over the last two years. “We’d

Rock and a hard place: Elginburg residents concerned over quarry expansion
TICO#50007364
News - The proposed expansion of the Elginburg quarry has generated a rocky response from the neighbours. Cruickshank Construction Ltd. wants to amend the Official Plan designation covering 144 hectares of property at 2489-2505 Unity Road, between Cordukes Road and Sydenham Road, to increase the size of its adjacent quarry operation. “It will be more than double the size of the existing quarry,” said Countryside councillor Richard Allen, whose rural district includes the quarry. The company is seeking to replace the site’s current rural and environmental protection zoning with a ‘Mineral Resource Area – Aggregates’ designation. Cruickshank says it needs the expansion to continue with its business to supply aggregate to construction sites in the Kingston area, noting its current quarry reserves are being depleted. However, area residents have started a petition to protest the proposed expansion. They are concerned a quarry depth of up to 100 feet and “unlimited tonnage” of annual rock removal could have a serious impact on their well water supply. “There are several farmers close by, whose live-
lihood could be destroyed,” said resident Robert Conner. Others say the quarry expansion will lead to increased truck traffic, noise and dust along rural roads in the area. “Our quality of life has been diminished as a direct result of the quarry and the proposed expansion will only make things worse,” wrote Don and Anne Carlyle in a letter of objection. The city’s planning committee hosted a public meeting Feb. 19 on the quarry expansion. Coun. Kevin George, who sits on the committee, says residential concerns need to be addressed. “There’s a lot of concern obviously because we know dealing with fractured limestone the water courses can change so drastically,” he said, adding: “I don’t blame the residents for having concerns that are going to need to be dealt with, that’s for darn sure.” But residents may have a tough time blocking the application since provincial policy states that “mineral resource extraction takes priority over the natu-

ral heritage system,” according to a municipal planning information report that came out in advance of the public meeting. Construction aggregates are the most mined minerals in the world and are key ingredients in asphalt/concrete mix and road foundations. Quarry operators use controlled explosions to release amounts of rock from the working face that are then crushed. A planning rationale study prepared for Cruickshank – focusing on issues such as environmental impact, traffic, noise and blast impact - noted the subject property is undeveloped and has million tonnes of rock that can be excavated for local road construction needs. The report found the existing quarry generates 100 to 200 truck trips a day, which would increase to 150 to 300 daily trips with up to 450 daily trips during the busy month of August, after the quarry expansion. But the report concluded it would represent only 7 to 14 per cent of average daily traffic on Unity Road.
The current and future quarry operations are within acceptable environment ministry noise guidelines, there are no significant natural heritage features, future blasting operation can be carried out in a “safe and productive manner,” and the lowering of the water table should continue to be recharged by precipitation, according to the study. But many residents are skeptical and fearful the quarry expansion will affect their well water supply. “Is the city prepared to accommodate the residents of Elginburg if our wells go dry as a result of this expansion?” asked Virgil Marques. City planners haven’t yet formed a recommendation for councillors to consider but it will include public comments. Coun. Allen says the current Elginburg quarry caused well problems when it opened about 50 years ago, and residents are justified in having concerns about their water supply and truck traffic flows. “Cruickshank should listen carefully to what they are asking for.” He hopes the planning committee can play a role in finding the best solution for the company and residents, which may include drafting contingency plans in the event the quarry expansion causes problems.

lotto explained during a slide presentation to councillors. The arena was also named “Best Venue Under 8,000 Seats” among industry circles for the fifth time in six years, and it got a state-of-the-art score clock and video display system with the highest resolution among the OHL arenas, she added. Coun. Rob Hutchison questioned SMG officials about the 234,000 attendance numbers, which were down from 284,000 in 2013 but higher than 229,000 in 2010. “Have we flat-lined?” Carlotto says profit and attendance targets are always difficult to estimate in the unpredictable nature of the live entertainment industry. “It’s a dynamic industry. By no means have we flat-lined,” she assured council. She remains optimistic about the year ahead. “In addition to the events already confirmed, 27 different shows have currently requested dates for 2015,” she said, adding another “big” show that’s coming this June will be an-
nounced within the next couple of weeks. Carlotto also revealed a snapshot of the ‘demographic distribution’ of arena visitors. Among the findings: -80 per cent of ticket buyers are Kingston residents, -the average ticket buyer is 41 years old, married with an average family income of $90,000 and prefers to attend a Saturday night show, -empty nesters, middle age achievers and young metro diversity are the three core groups of patrons. She says the statistics, compiled with the help of the arena’s ticket provider Ticketmaster, will help with new marketing strategies and determine which performances fans want to see. She also explained why Kingston is not a stop for most big-name stars. “The public wants acts that go to stadiums. We don’t have enough seats to pay the guarantee (performance fee) to get the act.” Councillors voted unanimously to approve SMG’s budget forecast for 2015. Under its contract with the city, SMG guarantees a base payment of at least $700,000 a year, which contributes to the facility’s estimated $1.2 million annual mortgage payment. Kingston taxpayers will continue to subsidize the difference. R001

College gets noise exemption to play soccer at outdoor field By Bill Hutchins
News - St. Lawrence College wants to make some noise at night. The Kingston campus was granted an exemption to the noise control bylaw to blow whistles until 9 p.m. every night during games played on its outdoor sports field at Portsmouth Avenue and King Street West. City councillors agreed to allow the college to make noise from whistles from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. from Monday to Saturday, and 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sunday. It can also extend game hours to 10 p.m. on 25 occasions throughout the busy soccer season. The field is mainly used between May and October each year. The request stems from the planned installation of flood lights around the natural turf field, which will allow it to be used much later in the evening. “When St. Lawrence College decided they wanted to put lights on their field … I said it’s a very good idea to make sure the neighbourhood was completely on side,” explained Coun. Liz Schell, who represents the area. Councillors admit they had a frustrating experience granting a similar evening noise bylaw exemption for Queen’s University to allow games at two west campus fields. The noise issue had raised the ire of neighbours but the city worked out a compromise. Queen’s was given a temporary noise bylaw exemption to allow limited amplified noise, anthems and PA announcements on its sports fields until 9 p.m. seven days a week. The exemption period will last until June 30, 2015. During that time, Queen’s must conduct detailed noise studies and develop a long-term plan to address concerns that games and practices are ruining the peace and quiet of dozens of nearby homes.
But in the case of the college sports field, neighbourhood complaints were nowhere to be heard. Councillors praised the college for its proactive consultation with the neighbourhood before bringing the application to council. Staff reported there were no objections raised by the public during two open houses. “I think they’ve done an excellent job,” added Coun. Schell. The installation of lights will be handled by staff through a separate site plan application. However, some councillors argued the added 10 p.m. exemption on 25 occasions throughout the season may be pressing the bounds of neighbourhood peace and quiet. “It seems like an excessive amount,” said Coun. Peter Stroud. He worries about the precedent it could set with other sports-minded institutions. “If we say 10 o’clock 25 times a year for St. Lawrence College then Queen’s will ask for the same.” However, city officials say there are notable differences between the noise exemptions granted to Queen’s and the college. Queen’s wanted permission to play amplified music and the national anthem in addition to blowing whistles at its west campus fields, while St. Lawrence College just wants permission to use referee whistles, explained community services commissioner Lanie Hurdle. She also says the college field has been used for a decade with no problems, and the lights shouldn’t pose the same issues. Coun. Rob Hutchison is worried college area residents may not know the impact of the lights until they are installed. But Coun. Kevin George says council should not be “assuming” what problems may
occur when the college ramps up its evening games, and he says council can always revisit the approval of evening whistles and lights based on any complaints. “We have to go with what is proposed.” Coun. Adam Candon says Kingston should be encouraging physical activity and make exceptions for evening games when the neighbourhood is on side. “I don’t necessarily feel all soccer fields should be treated equally.” The college says it has four varsity teams
that are renting fields elsewhere, while local soccer clubs would like the option to rent the campus field as well. The Kingston Women’s Soccer Club says it could use the extra playing time up until 10 p.m. “Our club is already feeling the effects of the new time restrictions at the West Queen’s Campus,” said club president Rachel Brace. The college’s 9 p.m. evening noise exemption was carried unanimously, while the 25 special occasion allowance for 10 p.m. games was approved 11-2.

$6 MILLION NEEDED FOR SECOND MRI AT KGH
O
ur region is fortunate to have the best stroke care possible, but our care providers need access to the best tools to provide that care. It is very import to have access to diagnostic information, in a timely fashion. Earlier diagnoses, better treatments and improved outcomes will result from the installation of a second tertiary care MRI. As KGH’s role in providing the highest level of specialty care (such as cancer care and stroke care) has grown, access to critical equipment such as MRI, has not. The province will provide ongoing operational funding for a second machine, but the community needs to raise the $6 million needed for the purchase and installation of the equipment. The need is clear. At any given time, there are 850 people waiting for an MRI at KGH. It is where the most complex scans are completed in the region. Anyone who is well enough and can be served at a communitybased clinic is referred there. Scans that must be
done at KGH are those that require special skill sets, equipment and services such as general anesthetic for children. Those waiting for MRI scans are prioritized by need. But because of the growing demand in our region, far too often, appointments are cancelled because a more urgent patient needs to be scanned. Imagine having a child who requires MRI scans every three months to monitor brain cancer and learning that the earliest they can get in is every five months. More specialized care and better treatments are also resulting in more demand for diagnostic services such as MRI. This is particularly true with the delivery of cancer
care. Best practices for treatment (known as clinical standards of care) call for MRI in more instances for screening, diagnosis, disease staging, treatment planning and post-treatment assessment. “This is about providing people with access to the imaging care they need, when they need it,” says Karen Pearson, Director of Imaging Services for KGH and Hotel Dieu Hospital. “Not only will it help us meet wait time expectations, but most importantly, it will provide patients and their care teams with access to the information they need to get on with their treatment.”
Every person waiting for an MRI at KGH is prioritized by need relative to others waiting for a scan. The problem is, there are too many people who urgently require an MRI. A second machine will help address wait times. Photo courtesy of Matthew Manor, KGH.

as no surprise that John and Heather Price are on the “A+ list” with top brass at CFB Kingston and RMC, and get invited to all the all the major events (changes of command, etc.) that take place. “It adds up to 30 or 40 invitations a year,” he says. “We’re really honoured to be able to go there and participate and sort of represent the citizens of Kingston.” Indeed, Base Commander Col. F.J Chagnon also describes Price as an important link between the military community and the wider Kingston community. “I’ve always seen Kingston as a community that truly supports, rain or shine, their military community, and John reinforces that on a regular basis” he says. “He does this out of the goodness of his heart with the support of his wife Heather. There’s never any expectation of anything
in return for all this, he really does it because he truly believes in it. From a base commander’s perspective that’s truly appreciated.” The next Kingston Frontenacs military appreciation game, called Salute the Troops: Past and Present, will be held Friday, March 6 at the K-Rock Centre. A very special guest, Minister of Veteran Affairs Erin O’Toole, will be in attendance. “It was such a success last year with all the military in uniform, coming out after the game on the ice to have a picture with the Kingston Frontenacs who are wearing their cadpat uniforms,” Price notes. He adds that “Kingston has such a rich, historic, connection with the military. That’s how Kingston was founded…We have a great relationship with all the families that we call our friends that are here only for three of four years. It’s kind of nice to strengthen the bond.”

News – The City of Kingston is trying to remove any lingering doubt when it comes to not wanting a casino within its borders. Councillors voted unanimously at their Feb. 17 meeting to begin the planning process to repeal the zoning bylaw that permits a gambling facility outside the downtown area. The bylaw was established prior to last year’s civic election in order to lay the groundwork for a potential casino. This is the second time in the past two months that this council has tried to quash the casino debate.

Regions that adhere to daylight saving time, or DST, will set their clocks forward at 2 a.m. on Sunday March 8, 2015. Many people look forward to daylight saving time in the spring because it extends light into the evening hours, allowing those who live in regions where DST is practiced to spend more time outdoors in natural sunlight. The modern incarnation of DST was proposed by New Zealand entomologist and astronomer George Vernon Hudson in 1895. Hudson enjoyed collecting insects and knew that it would be easier to do so if there were more hours of daylight in the evening. That prompted him to present a paper to the Wellington Philosophical Society in which he proposed a two-hour daylight saving shift. In April 1916, Germany and Austria-Hungary became the first countries to implement DST, and many countries have since followed suit. Many proponents cite the positive impact that DST has on energy consumption, but research studying the impact of DST on heating and coolingusage patterns has produced mixed results. In December, the freshly swornin council voted unanimously to send a message to the provincial government and the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation that the city is no longer interested in hosting a casino based on last fall’s election referendum results. Twothirds of voters rejected the idea of a casino. Despite the clear direction, it was later revealed that a citizen is taking the city to the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) because

its current zoning rules could still permit a gambling facility outside the downtown. The citizen wants to remove any doubts, based on planning rules, that the gambling debate could still be resurrected. The OMB opened the hearing Feb. 3, but it’s unclear whether the appeal will move forward now that the zoning bylaw is being scrapped. Mayor Bryan Paterson says the city wants to remove any notion that a casino could be in the cards

in the future. “We are simply following the results of the referendum that we had here in Kingston which made it pretty clear that the vast majority of residents are not interested in having a casino and so we’re taking steps to amend our Official Plan accordingly to ensure a casino can’t locate anywhere in Kingston.” The timing of council’s bylaw repeal is more than coincidental. It was approved following a closeddoor meeting where politicians dis-

Bylaw Repealed: City Hall to put final nail in casino coffin cussed the OMB’s casino hearing. It appears council is trying to stop the case from proceeding by removing any grounds for an appeal. “I think that could certainly be interpreted as one way of responding to the OMB appeal,” the mayor explained. He says it’s been a divisive debate that needs to come to an end. “I think that it’s very clear that council is trying to send a clear message to put this issue to bed once and for all.”

EDITORIAL Keeping away from the Kardashiansâ&#x20AC;Ś and the rest of celebrity culture Love them or hate them, celebrities are everywhere. Whether you are standing in line at the supermarket, listening to the radio, scanning social media or even watching the nightly news you are likely to see or hear about some sort of celebrity. We really canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t escape them and with awards season it becomes even more impossible, but the question I have is why do we care so much? Why do we dwell on these people we will likely never meet or interact with and why do we idolize them so much? I asked myself these questions a few weeks ago when I was visiting my parents and for some reason ended up watching an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Korey and I made a choice to cancel our cable subscription almost two years ago and as I watched the Kardashians perform seemingly mundane tasks and argue about things that were clearly fabricated
for the cameras, I was grateful for our choice. I also wondered why on earth these people were famous. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll admit it, at one time I actually followed celebrity culture and cared about who was dating/cheating on/ divorcing whom. I even had a subscription to People magazine and read daily celebrity blogs; I guess I was celebrity obsessed. But then I started wondering what the point of it all was. I was taking time out of my day to read about people I would never meet and people I knew very little about instead of focusing on my life and my surroundings - things I could actually control. I think we all get caught up in the glitz and glamour of celebrity culture and the luxuries they have, but at the end of the day they go home not caring about us, so why should we care about them. I understand that many of us fantasize about their lives, money and opportunities, but we also build them up to an unrealistic standard. We focus on their movie roles or singing careers and we see the version of themselves that they want to present. We never really know who they are and that superficial picture is what bothers me the most. Awards shows also bother me.

I used to watch the Oscars and the Golden Globes every year and make an attempt to see all of the films that were nominated, but then I realized that there are so many other great films out there. On top of that, the Oscars are voted on by of panel of older, rich, white males and really, what do they know about what kind of movie Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d enjoy? I quickly came to realize that the films I like the most donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t generate â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Oscar buzzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and that is totally fine. You shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need someone to tell you which movies to enjoy, you should be able to determine that for yourself, especially when thousands of movies are created each year. I know all of this sounds like a rant, but there are so many other things going on in the world to pay attention to and I think celebrity culture is very low on the list. I know the world can be harsh and depressing and hard to deal with at times and maybe that is why so many of us escape to celebrities. We feel like they provide a break from our everyday lives and the horrific things that happen around the world and I understand that. But for me, personally, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather focus on other things and leave all of that superficial stuff alone.

In Our Opinion
Family Day not a holiday for all
We suspect that most of us who were fortunate enough to have the day off on Feb. 16 appreciate the mid-winter break provided by Family Day. But thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something about the name of that public holiday that seems a bit odd given the circumstances in which many people find themselves in Ontario and certain other provinces on the third Monday of February. There are a lot of federal public servants and retail sector workers who were on the job; Monday was not a holiday for them. Although Remembrance Day is a holiday for the feds and not for most others in the labour force, we have to wonder why the intent of Family Day does not apply across the board to all in the public and private sectors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ontarians work very hard and they deserve more time to spend with the people they love,â&#x20AC;? a Ministry of Labour answer sheet states. But what about all the people who do not have the luxury of making it a three-day weekend? Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t they work hard and deserve time with their loved ones too? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s as if there are two classes of family in Ontario: one that gets the holiday and the other that does not. We realize that there are always going to be people who have to work on statutory holidays, but seven years after re-elected premier Dalton McGuinty actually made good on his campaign pledge to add the February holiday we are still wondering just how family-friendly it is for the hundreds of thousands of Ontarians who might also welcome a chance to take a break but do not have the privilege of doing so. When it comes to public holidays, both days â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Family and Remembrance â&#x20AC;&#x201C; should apply equally to as many workers in all sectors as is possible.

The little black building on the north side of the barn had been ready since the Fall. To me, it always looked like it was about to topple over. And yet it was solid. It had no windows, and the only door was nothing more than a slit in one side, just wide enough to take a large block of ice and the body of the person sent out to get a block for the ice box. That was always my sister Audrey, or my oldest brother Everett, both of whom were considered big enough and capable of abiding by all the rules set down for going in and out of the ice house. That meant be quick about it, close the door behind you going in and coming out, and don’t forget to brush off as much sawdust off the block of ice as you can before lugging it into the house! The ice house was made ready by the Fall. For days the door was allowed to hang open, so that any remnants of the left over ice would melt and the building got a thorough chilling. My brothers would spend days shoveling out the wet sawdust and spreading it behind the silo where it rested until it rotted into nothingness. I could never understand why the sawdust couldn’t be used over and over again. But Father said the ice kept better with good dry sawdust, and besides, when the temperatures dipped way below zero, the clumps would freeze into hard and solid
masses. By the last of October and into November, most of the sawing bees in the Northcote area would be over. Everyone’s wood was sitting in piles in the back yards, ready to be loaded into the summer kitchen for the long cold days and nights ahead. And beside the wood, where the saw had been, there were small piles of sawdust, but there was never enough to fill the icehouses. And so, every year after the harvest was done, and Fall was crisp in the air, Father and the brothers would make trips to the saw mill where the owner was more than glad to part with however much sawdust we wanted. The wagon with the flat bottom or the sleigh depending on if we had an early snowfall, would be hitched up with the team and the job of hauling the sawdust would begin. Load after load down the Northcote side road. Load it on, and then load it off. Piled outside the ice house the mountain grew higher and higher until Father thought there was enough to do the job. This would take days, and sometimes weeks before there was enough. And the job had to be done between the other farm chores, and when the brothers were off school. So it was usually done on a Saturday when every hand could help. As for my sister Audrey and me, there was little we could do, other than make sure the barn cats were kept out of the little black ice house. Mother lived in constant dread that a few of them would get in and burrow into the fresh sawdust and do the unspeakable, con-
taminating the ice that would soon line the walls and fill the floor space. And when Father thought there was enough sawdust to do the job, it all had to be moved into the icehouse. It was piled high up the walls, like pastry in a pie shell, and there would be a good foot layer on the floor. Whatever was left over was piled against one wall away from the small slit of a door. My brother Everett said this was the hardest job because there was no light in the icehouse, and everything was done by feel. Father sometimes hung a lantern on a nail from a rafter, but it did little more than cast shadows. The sawdust was clean and fluffy and gave off the most wonderful smell of freshly sawn wood, which of course it was. Father would check the roof to make sure it was tightly sealed and that no rain would get in. The roof slanted to the ground on one side so that the snow would slide off easily. It would never do to add moisture to the fresh sawdust before it had it came in contact with the ice. And then when the sawdust had all been moved inside, the door was shut tightly, and the wood slide lock put in place to keep everything dry until Father was ready to haul in the ice. And then the waiting game began. The winter, I used to think was half over before Father was able to bring in the blocks of ice from the Bonnecherre River. The water had to be frozen solid and Father liked to take the blocks from the centre where it ran deepest and clearest.
It was usually early January, or even into February, before Father thought the River was ready. And then when the cutting began, the blocks would be hauled up over the West Hill and across the fields to the little ice house. And one by one the entire floor would be covered with the blocks, weighing close to 100 pounds each, and then they too would be covered with the clean sawdust. And so it went, until the little house was full, each block wrapped in its winter cloak. The exercise was not to keep the ice frozen in the winter, the cold Renfrew temperatures looked after that, but to make sure that the ice would not melt over the long summer months ahead. And it was always like a miracle to me, that something as simple as covering the ice with sawdust would keep it as solid as if it had just come out of the Bonnecherre. But Father, when I would ask him to explain it to me would say, a lot of things had to match up. The ice house had to be light proof, and the door small, to let in as little warmth as possible when it was opened, and the building had to be on the north side of the barn. And all those things together kept the ice from melting. The ice house, Mother said, was the most important building on the farm, right up there in importance next to the chicken coop.

Restaurant owner rewards staff with trip to Cuba mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News – As an employee, feeling appreciated is very important. Everyone wants to know that they are doing their job well and that their hard work is being noticed. Usually that appreciation comes in the form of a raise, a good review or positive words, but for employees of Tango Nuevo it was a trip to Cuba. “We set out goals for the year at a meeting in January of 2014 and I told them they would be rewarded if we achieved those goals,” explained Tango Nuevo owner Gokhan Cifci. “They hit the target and I decided to close for a week in January, when it was convenient for the restaurant, and we all went down to Cuba.” The goals set out at that meeting included monetary amounts for the year, but Cifci also wanted to see Tango Nuevo rank in the top five in terms of restaurant reviews in Kingston, something that was no easy feat for a relatively new restaurant. “It was motivation for them to work harder and put more effort in and they did a great job,” said Cifci. “They really showed that they cared and I saw that they felt like they belonged. That is very difficult, especially in the restaurant business where there is higher turnover and more part time staff.” Tango Nuevo opened in July of 2013 and serves Spanish and fusion tappas cuisine. Cifci always knew that the restaurant would be a success, and he saw the staff as being very important to that success. “As an employer, if you find employees that
will give a lot that is so important. In the restaurant business, it’s hard to make a lot of profit, but you can minimize your costs. If your staff cares and they want to help that can be very beneficial.” Cifci updated his staff on their progress throughout the year in terms of their goals and also asked them to have their passports ready when they met in the later part of the year. He was excited to reward his staff for their hard work and also saw the trip as a teambuilding exercise for the restaurant. “We really got to know each other better. The whole experience made me really happy with my choices in terms of hiring,” he said. While the restaurant employees 24- full and part-time staff, only 16 were able to go on the trip to Cuba for a variety of reasons, but Cifci made sure that those who could not attend were given bonuses instead. He also invited a past employee who had moved on in the middle of 2014 to join them. “I told her she could come if she wanted and she did. We also had a few boyfriends and girlfriends of staff members join us and a regular customer too. It was a great time and a great trip.” The trip recharged staff and helped them get Gokhan Cifci is the owner of Tango Nuevo in downtown Kingston. ready for the coming year. While Cifci has no definitive plans as of yet, he is hoping to do something similar next year. “I want to get all the staff on the trip this time. We will have another meeting in May and we will work towards a goal again. It was a great experience overall and I definitely want to do it again.”

Supporting our Troops â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Care Packages By Stephanie Van Der Pryt
I am a proud military wife and mother of three beautiful children. My husband has been in the military for thirty plus years and on tour a few times.... Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had the pleasure of volunteering and working with the military community for a few years now and met many wonderful people, many who are lifelong friends. These friendships are very important for Military spouses, because many of the soldiers are away from their families and loved ones for weeks and sometimes months at a time. When speaking with the soldiers, they pointed out how much it means to them to receive goodies from back home. We may not know them personally, they may not know us, but to know someone is thinking about them; makes a difference. I often wonder how my family and I can support the soldiers who are deployed. I found the answer through speaking with some of the soldiers and through inspiration from another military spouse, Kim Mills. Kim is a very supportive military spouse and works hard to support the troops through many volunteer efforts, including putting together care packages. I decided to call St. Martha Catho-
lic School, where our children attend, and was invited by the principal to come in during â&#x20AC;&#x153;I Careâ&#x20AC;? week. What a perfect time to talk to the school kids and their teachers about the troops. What a perfect time to put together some care packages for them! I met with a Grade 1 class, Grade 3/4 class and a Grade 5 class â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a great bunch of wonderful and caring children. I talked to them a bit about why I was there and the importance of supporting military families. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to say much, because within minutes I had hands waving and all kinds of stories coming my way. Approximately half of the kids I spoke to that day had a Mom, Dad or family member in the military and some were currently deployed. After seeing the amazing cards, thank you letters, St. Patrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s day rainbow crafts and their very uniquely coloured hand made rainbow loom bracelets, I was almost tearful. These kids really get it and they really do appreciate what the Canadian Military is doing for them. Thank you to Holy Name of Jesus Parish for your generous donation to buy hockey jerseys, maple syrup and Tim Hortonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Coffee to send to the troops. As well, thank you to Tim Hortons, the KMFRC and PSP for some free items they included in our package, and to the Puxty family.
Every time I think of the students and all of the people that think about our soldiers, it puts a smile on my face. I hope the soldiers know how
much we all think about them and their families. I look forward to them receiving their care packages as I am sure it will bring a smile to them as

To Boldly Go Where No Children’s Thrift Sale Has Gone Before... By Rita Fairweather
Business and Advertising Coordinator
The Children’s Thrift Sale is celebrating its 25th Bi-annual Sale Saturday, April 18th, 2015 between 8:00 am- 12:00 pm at the Thompson Drill Hall. The history of how this sale has grown in popularity, sales and satisfaction is astonishing! It began with group of military wives gathering weekly at the Kingston Military Family Resource Centre (KMFRC) to enjoy coffee and conversation while their children would attend “play group”. They organized the first Children’s Thrift Sale in a small room in the basement of the KMFRC in the spring of 2003. They could not have predicted the amount of stuff they sold in only a few hours and the interest it created, as more families wanted to be part of this sale. Every military family knows the stress of de-cluttering the many infant and children’s items that you accumulate in a few short years. The Children’s Thrift Sale helps military families with young children organize and sell these items prior to receiving their posting message. It also benefits other young military and community families when they are looking to purchase gently used or brand new children’s items.
The group of military wives were onto something big, but it was unbelievable how popular and large the sale grew in the first few years. With more families wanting to join as vendors and the large number of customers who attended the event, the sale quickly “out-grew” the space at the KMFRC. By 2005 it moved to its present location at the Thompson Drill Hall. The military wives saw the sale as a way to give back. The proceeds raised from the sale could be donated back to the KMFRC Child and Youth Programs to purchase new toys and books for the children. The ongoing partnership between the KMFRC and the Children’s Thrift Sale continues to this day. A donation back to the KMFRC continues to support Military families at CFB Kingston. A committee was created in the early years to manage the duties required to plan and execute a successful sale. The sale has survived a change-over in committee members, with each new member coming with new ideas and abilities. To remain self-sufficient, the Children’s Thrift Sale Committee partners with local family and child focused businesses. For a small fee they can advertise their business on the Children’s Thrift Sale website and promote their business at our
sale. Come check out our sponsorship table! To manage the high volume of items sold, the development of an electronic data base using a sophisticated excel program was necessary. It provides cashiers with the ability to record vendor sales and custom-

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the Difference Between a Military and Civilian Family? By an experienced Military spouse
According to Statistics Canada, there are 9,389,700 families in Canada. We come from all walks of life, have diversiďŹ ed careers, and are ethnically diverse. So what sets a Canadian Armed Forces family apart from other Canadian families? Three words: â&#x20AC;˘ Mobility â&#x20AC;˘ Risk â&#x20AC;˘ Separation Mobility DeďŹ ned The Military lifestyle combines three aspects that very few other career paths incorporate. As a Military family, moving from community to community is a way of life. Although the tempo has slowed signiďŹ cantly over the past couple years, moving is still a main family stressor. Separation DeďŹ ned The second stressor, in no particular order, is separation. Military members are away from their families on training, exercises or deployment for weeks and often months at a time. In addition to the stress of being apart, there is an enhanced stress at the beginning and end of a period of separation. Risk DeďŹ ned And ďŹ nally, a career in the Military comes with the inherent risk of serious injury or death. One Military spouseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story summed up the difference between Military and civilian lifestyle perfectly. She said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;In my husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wedding vows, he promised me that he would not be with me for the most difďŹ cult moments, hardships, and even celebrations. He promised that I would always feel that something would take precedence over me. â&#x20AC;&#x153; â&#x20AC;&#x153;From our time together, I already knew this would be true. He has missed our sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ rst birthday, funerals,
and moments when I needed him most. I am not unique or unusual. Our lives are normal for a military family. â&#x20AC;&#x153; â&#x20AC;&#x153;For most of us, we move a lot. Our children were probably born in different provinces or even different countries. They will most likely not attend the same school and have the same friends throughout their childhood. â&#x20AC;&#x153; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our Military member is often away, leaving one of us to play the role of Mom and Dad. If we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have children, we are often alone. Our biological families are probably nowhere near us, so we learn to make friendships everywhere we go and adapt to new environments. We make friends who truly become our family.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are constantly aware of the risk of our lifestyle. We know that our loved ones could be sent anywhere in the world at any time. For many of us, it has happened several times and we know the next time could be just around the corner. We also know that they may not come home at all.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;My husband also promised me in his wedding vows that everything he does will be for me and for our children. He promised that he will see the faces of our children in every life he protects. As Military families, we live a life of sacriďŹ ce. Sometimes we see the bigger picture and the greater good and sometimes we feel angry, hurt, and want a â&#x20AC;&#x153;normalâ&#x20AC;? life. But we are proud of those who serve in our family, whether they are our husbands, wives, partners, mothers, fathers, sons, or daughters. We are proud of their dedication and their strength. We are strong, resilient, and ďŹ&#x201A;exible. We are independent, adaptable and we hold down the home front. We are the strength behind the uniform and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very proud of our Canadian Military.â&#x20AC;?
We are honoured to serve our military families.

How to GET RECâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d and re-build a social network By Tina (Tight E. Whitey)
A big part of the military lifestyle is moving from one city to another every few years. This lifestyle has its advantages and disadvantages. On one side, you get to see the vastness of our beautiful country, meet new people, experience new cultures and build friendships that can last a lifetime. For some, this lifestyle will
include living abroad. On the other side, every few years you find yourself having to rebuild your support network. Anyone with kids will tell you, it takes a community to raise a child. Connections like babysitters, dog-walkers, play groups, emergency childcare and close friends are continually changing it seems. Thankfully, within every city, there

are social groups that help with the process of rebuilding new social circles and contact networks. One such group you may not have heard about in Kingston is the Kingston RECâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;n Rollers, Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recreational roller derby league. This action-loving group of ladies is all about fun, fitness and friendships. They are lowcommitment, and understand their players have a life outside the derby track; there is no mandatory committee work required, but everyone is invited to participate where their time and tal-
ents work best. Every week during the winter months, the ladies get together once in the KMFRC gym to practice their skating skills, then again at JRâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mess for off-skate workouts. Not only are they building their athletic abilities, but they are also working to build friendships, squeak some (fun) fitness into their busy weeks, and learn to bond and work as a team before the bouting season arrives in the spring. A typical practice runs 90 minutes, 75 of which are on their skates. For off-skate fun the ladies take on belly dancing, belly fit, yoga, bodyweight workouts and league meetings to plan their upcom-

ing seasons. But, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t roller derby a full-contact sport? Why, yes, it is! Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t despair if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a bit shy on the contact component; the RECâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;n Rollers have two teams for you to choose from come bouting season! The wRECking Belles play a modified, lowcontact version of the game, while the RECkless Mavens are their fullcontact team. Both teams require a minimum skills test be passed by all skaters in order to play against another team. Safety first! Well, after fun, friendship and fitness, that isâ&#x20AC;Ś Want to get involved, but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to play roller derby? The RECâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;n Rollers are always happy to put people to work for them! Whether it be reffing scrimmages or games (on skate role), running the penalty box, keeping score, noting penalties, or running a training session there are LOTS of volunteer opportunities within this group of fun-loving ladies. Oh, and men are more than welcome to help out in any of these volunteer roles. You can find the Kingston RECâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;n Rollers on Facebook.com/Kingston RECnRollers, or you can email them at kingstonrollers@gmail.com for more information about practices and how to get involved.

The origin of the onion By: Aric McBay
Out Standing in our Field - Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be honest with you; as a kid, I would spit out any onion I tasted. At first I hated the flavour, but I came to hate the idea of onions. Inform my six-year-old self that there was onion in a meal, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d ensure in one sentence I would not take another bite. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m telling you this so that you know I was not easily won over to the side of the onion. Only when I became a teenage vegan (much to the surprise of my parents, since I had little interest in vegetables in general) did I come to appreciate the onion. Teenagers are notorious for being hungry, and without animal products
my palate necessarily broadened. As an adult became I a farmer and, with my new perspective on the food system, omnivorous. So my childhood self would be shocked that not only do I appreciate onions, I actually spend much of my time growing them along with other vegetables. In fact, butter-fried onions are a favourite side-dish in our household. My farming ancestors a thousand years ago, on the other hand, never had any doubt about the importance of the onion. Onions have been prized since they were first domesticated in Eurasia 7,000 years ago. In medieval times, onions were considered valuable enough that you could reputedly pay your rent with them. Or you might give them as

a wedding gift (since onions were thought to increase fertility and libido). Peasants would have appreciated the onionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s culinary attributes, to be sure. Its health benefits were widely known, useful in treating any number of ailments. But they would be won over by the onionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s excellent agricultural qualities. The sharp, sulfur-rich compounds I hated when I was small make onions relatively resistant to disease in the field, and help them last longer in storage. For these reasons, the onion was a staple crop in Europe until it was displaced (in Ireland, most famously) by the potato. But why? When potatoes and other crops like tomatoes and peppers were brought to Europe from the Americas, farmers viewed them with suspicion. Potatoes are members of the nightshade family, which was better known in Europe for poisonous species like belladonna (deadly nightshade). What made the Irish give up their favoured staple for a strange foreign crop? The answer is simple: poverty. The potato was brought back to Europe while the nautical powers like Spain and Britain were bloodily expanding their empires around the world. In reward for military service abroad, British soldiers were given farms, which had been forcibly confiscated from the Irish peasantry. Irish people were pushed to the margins and forced to pay absentee landlords. The potatoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appeal grew. The storage onion,

for all its benefits, is not as fast to reproduce. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a biennial, taking two seasons to make seed. The onion you buy at the store has been grown for only one seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;if you want to get seed from it, you have to plant that onion again and let it flower. If you are poor and hungry, perhaps you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to wait that long. The potato is ready to regrow itself every spring, no waiting. And all you really need is the eye of the potatoâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;you can eat most of a potato and still plant it. But the potato didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the same disease resistance or genetic diversity as the sharp-flavoured onion; hence the eventual Irish Potato Famine. Though not longer an agricultural staple in Europe, the onion remains a culinary essential around the world. And rightly so. Just frying up an onion is enough to fill a house with savoury smells and give the impression that dinner is well on its way. Alas, it is a rare landlord these days who will accept a bushel of onions on the first of the month. But next time you go to a wedding do consider, if just for a moment, bringing the lucky couple an onion.

Heritage news-Frontenac Islands Mayor Denis Doyle recently attended the Eastern Ontario Wardens Caucus (EOWC). The caucus met with Eastern Ontario MPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to lobby for funding support and advice on key infrastructure projects in rural Ontario. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are serious infrastructure deficits across the country related to roads downloaded to municipalities over the last 15 to 20 years, but we did not focus much of our discussion on that,â&#x20AC;? Mayor Doyle said. â&#x20AC;&#x153; But locally in the Islands we have in the neighbourhood of $88 Million in assets most of which is the value of roads should they have to be built from scratch at this time.â&#x20AC;? Mayor Doyle talked about EOWC successes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the past 4 years they have completed a project to greatly improve Internet reception across Rural Eastern Ontario, at a cost of nearly $200 million. and supported by both the Province and the Federal government, each contributing one third of the cost. With that done we want to address inadequate or non-existent Cell Phone coverage in about half of our rural geography.â&#x20AC;? Mayor Doyle noted that in the case of the Islands down to the Quebec border the â&#x20AC;&#x153;stronger USA cell towers overpower the Canadian towers (Bell-Rogers). It is estimated that 130 more cell towers would be needed across the 13 counties in the EOWC area at a cost of $170 Million.â&#x20AC;? Doyle noted improvement in rural internet service but added that rural, isolated community health care services, ambulance and emergency services already demand even better, consistent internet and cell phone coverage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rural development, rural home sales, rural business ventures depend on it now. Without it rural R0013150594_0226 communities will fail, cease to exist.â&#x20AC;? According to Doyle the EOWC is cur- Hair Restoration CLAUDE AMELOTTE 35 Years Experience rently working on a business plan with regard If you want fuller, stronger and denser hair to the issue. â&#x20AC;&#x153; Since there are so few customour new low light laser treatment is rated #1 and ers in the rural areas of Eastern Ontario one is the only one that is FDA approved. thing is certain that we will need Federal and Provincial assistance as the private sector Call today for a FREE Home Visitation or Brochure could not justify the expenditure.â&#x20AC;?

He described the program approved for new light weight ambulance vehicles to be built with automatic stretcher loading and unloading systems (smaller outside, same dimensions inside, weighing half a ton less than current vehicles) with automatic shut down â&#x20AC;&#x201C; restart engines to maintain appropriate inside temperature and having an estimated 40% fuel cost saving. According to Mayor Doyle, Frontenac Islands greatest budget challenge is the increase in OPP costs from â&#x20AC;&#x153;$100K to $300K and planning for asset management primar-

Last Thursday there was a funeral liturgy at Sacred Heart of Mary Church on Wolfe Island for Gerald Eves whose sudden death, came as a shock to all who knew him. The liturgy was celebrated by Fr. Malcolm Burke who was joined by Rev. Canon Chris Carr and Deacon Gerry Moore from Wolfe Islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Trinity Anglican Church. And in the company of Geraldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grieving wife and children, his mother, his entire family, friends, co workers, the island community mourned with them and thanked God for Geraldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. He was one of their own and he died too soon.

Seniors Outreach Adult Day Program Lennox and Addington Seniors Outreach Services (LASOS) is keeping in step with your changing needs. By offering services such as Meals on Wheels, transportation to medical appointments, in-home caregiver support, foot care services and adult day care services in Amherstview and Bath areas, they are helping to keep seniors in their own homes. There are now spaces available for new participants in the Adult Day Program. This is for caregiv-
ers caring for a loved one at home who suffers from Alzheimer’s, dementia, stroke-related conditions, social isolation or other situations where your loved one cannot be left alone at home. Consider giving yourself a break and bring your loved one to the Seniors Outreach Adult Day Program. Participants experience a social, friendly, caring atmosphere with physical and mentally stimulating activities in a group setting and/or one-on-one basis. Snacks and hot meals are provided. The first two
visits are free to help determine if the service is right for you. There is no obligation, but they are confident the free trial days will convince you and your loved one of the many benefits this service offers. Eligibility for this program is determined through an assessment process. For information on the Adult Day Program or any of the services offered by LASOS, call 613-354-6668 and their friendly staff will answer any questions you may have.

Getting real in NY shops and restaurants, along with Lincoln Center (home to the New York Ballet, NY Philharmonic and Metropolitan Opera, and a Broadway theatre). If you get hungry, Lanskyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Deli at 235 Columbus Avenue bills itself as the quintessential modern classic Jewish deli. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get huge portions at reasonable prices. In neighborhoods like these, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll start to get a glimpse of New York away from the overwhelming Times Square atmosphere. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lots to do for free in New York. Last week I mentioned Central Park. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another do-not-miss free location: Brooklyn Bridge. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a photographerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dream and a piece of The best ways to get around history. You can ride the A-train the Metro system of subw New York City are by foot or ays and buses. or C-train to the High Street what kind of street en You never know te rt ai nment youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll ex station and then walk across subway. perience on the the bridge from the Brooklyn Photo/Mark Berg in side back to Manhattan.

Want to explore New York but not stand out like a tourist from another planet? The best way to fit in, to not stand out as a tourist and to get to know a place youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re visiting can be summed up in the phrase common courtesy. Many who live in New York avoid sites with tourist crowds. I tend to cut some slack nowadays for non-NY friends who want to see the stereotypical sites. NYC is one of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most amazing and diverse cities and if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve grown up seeing it in film and on TV, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only natural to want to see some of the familiar locales. Times Square is a madhouse of crowds, but I admit thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a certain rush being in the centre of it all. So experience it, and then get out. Tourists donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tend to stray far from the familiar. The realness is just a few blocks away. Eating I cannot emphasize this strongly enough: Do not eat in Times Square. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care how badly you want to say you ate at Hard Rock Cafe, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not worth it. It baffles me why anyone would travel to one of the most culturally diverse cities in the world only to eat at a corporate franchise. The food gets cheaper (much cheaper) and the quality gets drastically better as you move away from Times Square. To every rule there are exceptions: Ellenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Stardust Diner at 1650 Broadway at West 51st Street is pure fun. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a retro 1950s-themed diner filled with nostalgic memorabilia. Ellenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s features singing wait staff who perform songs from Broadway musicals while doing their work. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite a sight. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be surprised when one of the staff jumps onto the railing behind your seat and walks along above the diners while crooning a West Side Story tune. Ellenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offers a good diner-style menu thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pricey, but the entertainment is well worth it. Things start to get better north of 51st Street. Cognac is a wonderful restaurant at the corner of Broadway and W 55th. Where else can you get fine French cuisine that includes filet mignon burgers? In general, tourists donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tend to stray west past 8th Avenue. Make your way one block further west to 9th Avenue and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find yourself in Hellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kitchen, a neighborhood full of quirky shops and family-run restaurants. The name relates to its rough-and-tumble working-class Irish past. Today, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home to many upand-coming and newly established actors and musicians. The restaurants on 9th are also popular go-to locations for Broadway actors after their shows. You can also find some good food on Restaurant Row, the 300 block of West 46th Street. It wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be cheap, but the quality and entertainment will be much better than in the immediate Times Square area. Swing 46 (349 W 46) features live big-band jazz nightly and the food is great; the salmon is divine. Nearby, Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Tell Mama (343 W 46) is a fun bar/restaurant/cabaret. There are so many great and sometimes obscure restaurants in the City that it would take weeks to list them all. Getting Around The best way to get around is a good pair of shoes and a seven-day Metro Pass, which allows you to take unlimited trips on the subway, buses and even the Roosevelt Island Tram where you get stunning
views as you travel from Manhattan in the air alongside the 59th Street Bridge (yes, that bridge: feeling groovy) over the river. Ask for a free subway map and bus map at one of the Metro booths. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve spent many fun days hopping on the first bus I see and riding it for 15 minutes, then getting off and exploring the neighborhood in which I find myself. Popular Sites Whatever your tastes, New York probably has a museum or gallery that will match your interests. Any tourist guide book will help you find what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for. Standard tourist sites include Ellis Islandâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;entry point for thousands of immigrants over the years, the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, the Top of the Rock (Rockefeller Centre), and for those feeling a little risquĂŠ, Canal Street, with its cheap goods and backroom deals. You can see the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island without spending hours in lines there by riding the free Staten Island Ferry, which goes right past these two sites. Then thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Times Square. The best reason for going there is the TKTS discount tickets booths at W 47/Broadway/7th Ave. You can get day-of-show tickets for half or reduced prices. People start lining up an hour or more before tickets go on sale. If, like me, you dislike lines, just show up 30 to 60 minutes before show time, when there tends to be no line. Unsold premium seats are often released an hour before curtain at drastic price reductions (for example, $75 for a $250 ticket). If your heart is set on a show for which tickets are hard to get, buy them ahead of time. Lion King and Wicked tend to be sold out forever. Book of Mormon tickets used to be impossible to find, but now that the original cast is long gone, tickets are sometimes available at non-prime times. But donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to find tickets during the March Break, Easter weekend and other holiday times. You can check out current Bâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Way and off-Bâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Way shows at broadway.com. However, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy your tickets there. They charge outrageous service fees. Go to the showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own website or, if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in NYC, get them directly from the box office. If some popular show is sold out, some tickets (cancellations, turned in tickets) are released an hour before the show at the box office. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget your favorite TV shows like The Late Show with David Letterman. See it now before he retires this year. You have to apply ahead for tickets, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re free and you get Broadway-quality entertainment. The Letterman show you see at night is taped in the afternoon. Neighborhoods Areas where tourists donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tend to flock include Hellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kitchen, New York University/Washington Square Park, Greenwich Village, the East Village and Chinatown. In Greenwich Village and the East Village, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find lots of off-Broadway theatres, tattoo/piercing shops, psychic readers, gay bars side-by-side machismo sports bars, jazz and blues clubs and just plain fun places. In Chinatown, explore Pell, Mott and Doyers Streets, south of Canal St. Treat your body with a foot rub or back rub using the Chinese Tui Na system at Foot Heaven at 16 Pell St. The name says it all. The practitioners may not speak much English, but youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get a massage thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second to none. The cost is well below nearby spa prices. I prefer 90 minutes that include a half hour on the back and then an hour on the feet or legs. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rough stuff on the back. They really work you over, but any stress you came in with will be gone when you leave. The Upper West Side is worth a day of your time. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safe, clean and home to hundreds of

ment because Ontario has just started a new system, which the States has been on for many, many years called the JO (Junior Olympic compulsory program) system,” Lee explains. “So it was a great opportunity for these girls to go compete in that country.” Of course, they also took a little time to relax while in Florida. “It was for six days, so there were two days of travelling, two days of competing, and then we did take them shopping and we took them to Magic Kingdom,” Lee says. “It was a lot of fun.”

Sports - A trip to Orlando, Florida probably sounds pretty good to most Kingstonians at this time of year, and for a group of gymnasts from Trillium Gymnastics Club it was particularly sweet. Fourteen local gymnasts aged nine to 15 took part in the international competition Magical Classic Feb. 13-14 and many placed very well. The Level 7 team, consisting of Jesse Weaver, Amanda Black, Clare Stafford and Ella MacPhail placed first overall - a pretty impressive accomplishment considering over 1,800 kids from a number of different countries participated in the competition. “It was a great experience,” says head coach Shelley Lee. “They work really hard and they train a lot of hours in the gym, so to take them to an international competition and have them place first all around was a great feeling.” Several of the gymnasts also did well in the individual competitions, including Jesse Weaver, first overall in Level 7, age 13; Ella MacPhail, first overall in Level 7, age 14-15; Sydney Campbell, third overall in Level 5, age 13; and Clare Stafford, third overall in Level 7, age 14-15. So what does it take to shine at an event like this? “It takes a lot of hard work, a lot of determination, a lot of skill development, a great deal of practice and the girls had been working very, very hard,” Lee says. “They were extremely excited to have been given the opportunity to compete at such a prestigious meet.” She adds that she wasn’t exactly surprised the girls saw so much success. “They’re a good group of girls, a very talented group of girls, and they’ve been working really hard on hitting their positions and hitting their skills and showing maximum amplitude. So it was just kind of a matter of time as to when they would actually hit, and they hit at the right time.” The experience was quite beneficial for the coaches, too: “It was great professional develop-

It was a tough weekend for the Frontenacs, playing through injuries, illness and suspensions. They also lost 7-1 to Oshawa on Friday night and 3-0 while visiting Ottawa on Saturday.

at Queen’s. “During my fourth year at Queen’s, all my work was looking at imagination, kids and creativity and what happens to that sensitive curiosity. Creativity slowly disappears as you get older. All my work was about that.” She heard about the Queen’s Artist in Community Education program, and it seemed like an ideal fit. “My mom’s a teacher and I knew that teaching was always an option for me. The arts aspect makes it applicable for me.” She says art was always in her life. Growing up, there was a crafts area in her home. But she wasn’t all artsy. “I was a fairly quiet kid, but I played a lot of sports. I played competitive ball into my university years, and rugby, too. I was always active. I hung out with the arts crowd and the sports crowd.” She was drawn to fine arts in high school. “I was doing printmaking. I didn’t want to learn to paint; I wasn’t patient enough.” That seems like an odd statement, considering her quiet and calm persona. So the creative fire burns beneath the surface for her. After she completed high school, she took a year off to decide what was next. “I had lots of options, but didn’t know what to do,” she says. “I thought,

focus on her artistic calling. “I knew Katharine was looking for a studio spot. I applied [for a studio at the Tett] because I need to start making things again. My three jobs were all good and they involve things I’m good at, but there was that part of me that was feeling so heavy and locked in. I needed a space that wasn’t the kitchen table. I love the fact that I’m not working in isolation here. And I love hanging out with Katharine.” Phoebe and Katharine were selected to be part of the Tett community of artists. “I really like the communal working environment at the Tett,” she says. “When I was in the BFA, it was a small program. I knew everyone and their work. We fed off each other. It seems really good here [at the Tett]. It feels good.” One of her current projects reflects her positive approach to life and art. She’s developing a print about things to be thankful for. “Being thankful is such a simple idea, but it can be so difficult to put into practice. It’s very grounding to be thankful.” That project is a reflection of her life and philosophy. “I think that art is so good for your spirit and your soul,” she says. “You can speak about the social aspects and all those things, but the reason we really need art is to remind us that we are human and yes the world is beautiful. There are things that are joyful and hopeful. We get lost in the day to day and need to breathe life back into the places that are hurting.” At the Tett, she hopes to expand her creative practice and apply to juried exhibitions again. “I want to refine my skills,” she says. “I want to settle into a groove. The number of people you meet in this space, it’s really building up a network. When you’re at Queen’s, it’s hard to see Kingston as itself. Once you do, it’s like getting to know a friend, you see how great it is. There are all kinds of things going on in the arts community.” As for those who say they’re not creative, Phoe-
be says it’s something she sees in students all the time. “You have to encourage someone so the spark doesn’t disappear,” she says. “What I see in students is the product not coming out exactly the way they think is perfect. People want to be perfect. What I’d like to pass on is to help them problem solve. Being creative is so much about understanding what it means to be human. Being human is not such a bad thing. People don’t know what to do when they expect themselves to be perfect, but being human is a precious thing. If you’re working on something and it’s not working, just put it aside and come back to it later.” She gave an example from her own work. Last week, she got out a couple of prints she’d work on as an undergraduate student. They weren’t working out then and she put them away—apparently for quite a while. “I got them out to try to bring life back into them,” she says. “I feel lighter somehow now. I feel like this is the place where I can relax and get into the zone. I feel much more calm.” She is still the President of the Board of Directors at Modern Fuel and has two part-time jobs, but she’s feeding off her own creative spark again. “I’m surprised how relieved I was to start working and making things again. There’s an excitement and joy when I first carve something and make a print. I know I’ve made something.” She says she knows the best way to de-stress, especially at times when she’s so busy that she feels she doesn’t have time to breathe, is to create something. “And I play a lot of board games with my husband and house mates.” She smiles and says, “Grandma taught me cribbage when I was six.” Feel free to drop into the Tett Centre to meet Phoebe Cohoe in Studio 214B. It’s easy to feel the positive spirit after spending time with her. You can also find her on Twitter @phoebecohoe and check out her website, phoebecohoe.com. Mark Bergin on Twitter @markaidanbergin.

Make the most of your home appraisal When homeowners think about renovating their properties, many first need to secure some funding to finance such projects. Some may tap into the equity of their homes by refinancing an existing mortgage, while others may apply for home equity loans. Taking the latter approach may require certain steps, including an assessment of how much the home and property is worth. Home appraisals compare your home to neighboring properties to determine your homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current market value. Homeowners can facilitate the process by having certain information readily available for the appraiser. When preparing for appraisers, homeowners should consider and collect the following information:
¡ If your home was built on the largest lot in the community. ¡ If you have made significant upgrades since it was last appraised, such as installing a new roof or siding. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overlook smaller renovations, like extra insulation added or sealing drafty windows, which can increase a homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s value. ¡ Proof that you have used sustainable resources or if you participated in any energy-savings programs. Naturally, any expansion projects, such as adding another bedroom or extending the footprint of the home, should be mentioned. A real estate appraiser is a certified, licensed professional who will do his or her best to determine the value of your home. The appraisal
provides banks with information that can tell loan officers if the house is worth the loan amount. Expect to pay a fee for the appraisal, which is generally included in your closing costs. The appraiser gathers information for the appraisal report from a number of sources, but the process often begins with a physical inspection of the property, both inside and out. He or she also will compare your home against a few others in the neighborhood, which are known as comparables, or comps. Appraisals will be based on recent prices of comparable properties as well as other factors. Apart from the improvements done to the home, there are other ways to get a higher appraisal amount. The appraiser may consider the overall
that person space to do his or her job. Following the appraiser around during an inspection can raise a red flag that something is wrong with the house that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be seen. Turn lights on throughout the house, make sure the heating or cooling system is functioning at full capacity and keep pets locked away. Move items that can impede access to basements or attics. An accurate assessment of the value of your home will give banks the information they need to determine loan amounts for future renovation projects. Providing background information on the home and having a well-maintained property can improve the chances of a favorable appraisal.

maintenance of the home and property. It is wise to consider curb appeal and ensure the home is clean and maintained when the appraiser arrives. Minor repairs or common maintenance can impress the appraiser. Removing clutter and cleaning up the homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interior can make the home appear larger, possibly increasing its value as a result. It may be worth it to invest some more money into the property before having an appraisal done. A study sponsored by the National Association of Realtors says wood floors, landscaping and an enclosed garage can lead to a more favorable appraisal. An appraiser will spend roughly 30 minutes in a home. Try to give

How you can finance your home improvement projects • Paying outright: Paying for the renovations upfront and in full is perhaps the simplest way to finance a project. Homeowners who have the cash to pay for renovations outright won’t have to worry about interest rates or balloon payments. • Mortgage refinancing: Some homeowners tap into their home equity to cover home remodeling projects. Refinancing a mortgage means paying off the debt owed and starting over with a completely new loan. Refinancing comes with various fees and can cost between 3 and 6 percent of the loan’s principal. • Home equity loans and lines of credit: Both of these options are commonly referred to as second mortgages. When homeowners apply for home equity loans or lines of credit, they are borrowing against the equity value in their homes. A home equity loan is a term, or closed-end, loan. It
is a one-time sum that will be paid off over a set amount of time with a fixed interest rate and the same payment each month. This is a one-time loan from which a person cannot borrow further. A home equity line of credit, or HELOC, is like having a credit card. It’s possible to borrow a certain amount for the life of the loan, which is a set time specified by the lender. During this time, homeowners can withdraw money as it is needed up to the value of the line of credit. HELOCs typically have a variable interest rate that fluctuates and payments can vary depending on the amount of money borrowed and the current interest rates. • Title I property loan: Residents of the United States with limited equity in their homes may qualify for an FHA Title I loan. Banks and other lenders are qualified to make these loans from their own funds, and the FHA will insure
the lender against a possible loss. Title I loans can be used for any improvements that will make a home more useful and livable. They cannot be used for renovations deemed luxury expenses. • Borrow against retirement funds: Some people opt to borrow against a 401(k) plan, IRA or another retirement fund. If the retirement plan allows a loan without penalty, it can be another way to secure funds. Because it is the homeowner’s money, there will be no credit check required and less delay in getting the funds. Borrowers should keep in mind that taking a loan against a retirement account will usually result in a lower retirement balance than it would have been had they not borrowed money from the account - even after the funds have been repaid. • Credit cards: Credit cards are an option when improvements are not expensive.

Many homeowners recognize that improving and maintaining a property makes a home more livable for its inhabitants and more attractive to prospective buyers when the time comes to erect a “For Sale” sign in the front yard. But a well-maintained home also provides additional benefits. According to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, home improvements not only raise the values of individual homes, but they tend to raise neighborhood standards as well. Home improvements can create jobs and help local communities flourish economically. Maintaining a home can be a costly undertaking. Home improvement projects can be expensive whether homeowners hire professionals or tackle renovation projects on their own. The following are a handful of options homeowners can consider as they look for ways to finance renovation projects.
